1. To detangle your Hair, section the hair into smaller manageable sections. Add some conditioner to the hair and run your fingers through to get rid of any of the larger tangles. Apply a generous amount of conditioner to each section and gently pull apart the hair that has clumped together. Rake your fingers through each section to gently detangle. Never attempt to brush or comb natural hair when it is dry. This should only be done when it is wet and saturated with conditioner. Use a wide tooth comb or a Denman brush.

2. If the hair is especially long or thick, braid or twist the sections that you have already detangled loosely. This will keep the detangled hair out of the way while you work on other sections. Once you are done if you choose to shampoo you can leave it in the braids or twists. Remember that you shampoo your scalp NOT your hair. The hair will get clean as the shampoo runs from your scalp and throughout your hair. NEVER pile your hair on top of your head. Let the hair hang freely. If you are using shampoo choose a sulphate free shampoo. This will get your hair and scalp clean without drying it out.

3. Once weekly apply a deep conditioning treatment of your choice and sit under a hooded dryer for 20-30 minutes to allow the deep conditioner to penetrate the hair.

4. While your hair is still wet with conditioner, repeat step 1

5. Finish by doing a cold water rinse to help the hair cuticles close and your curls set.
